Aw, how cute.

August 18, 2008 by dreamstela

So, according to the State of Alabama, we’ve been married for 2 years now. I can’t believe it’s already been 2 years.

Happy (legal) anniversary, sweetheart!

Otium Cum Dignitate

It means "leisure with dignity". It's a concept taken from the ancient Romans - that even though you're having leisure time, that doesn't mean that you aren't still learning or thinking. Imagine sitting in a villa overlooking the mediterranean on your vacation from the hustle and bustle of a crowded city. Not only are you enjoying the view, sleeping late, and drinking some really great wine, but you're also reading philosophy and The Aeniad.

What takes up my time, now.
There are four questions of value in life... What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love.
